How is Hollywood property tax calculated?

Hollywood property taxes are calculated by multiplying the assessed value Charleston County sets for a specific home by the millage rate the county, any applicable district and the school district set annually. An owner-occupied primary residence in Hollywood is assessed at a lower ratio than a second home, rental or vacant land, which changes the bill even at the same market value. Because Hollywood is a smaller, more rural part of the county, comparable assessed values can be harder to find than in a denser town.
